    Hose died on 1401-B. What's the best replacement?

    I'll likely get a genuine vinyl hose in the near future. This will hold me over till that time frame. I wonder if those tiny magnets would work glued to it as well. With the genuine hose I have being unrepairable (I couldn't get the handle to split apart to look at the wires) I can use the...
